*If you missed ’em, check out Part 1 ~ Magnificent Maine & Part 2 ~ ♪ O Canada ♫. After Canada, we had a day at sea before our last stop in the beautiful and proud city of Boston. A measly eight hours in this city is not nearly enough, and I long to visit again…

Four years ago, the husband and I hopped on a plane in Cleveland Ohio, landed in Baltimore Maryland, changed clothes in the airport restroom, hailed a taxi, and then got married in Federal Hill Park overlooking the city… all by noon. Best. Day. Ever. Filled with pure adrenaline, nerves, and most likely caffeine and sugar. I have never regretted eloping.…

This Spring Forward time change business is really messing me with this week. I think it’s also messing with one of our pups. Neither of us are sleeping well… at least not until the wee hours of the morning, and then we sleep in a little too late for my liking. Blah. I call this…

Hello

I’m Frani, the creator of this little ol’ realm called Wanderwhirl.

Most of the time, I can be found crouching in a corner – hissing and crying tears of despair writing in my little hidey-hole, pulling out strands of hair as I do so and questioning my own existence. When I can be bothered to come around here, I talk a lot about feelings. And food. And my dogs. And yep, more feelings. Currently, it’s a bit “Nevertheless, she persisted.” and all that jazz around here.

I am partnered to a weird and handsome fella and pack leader to two strange four-legged creatures who are supposedly dogs. (I think one might be a catdeerdog and the other a muppet, but what do I know?) I am a lover of history, research, and baby animals. I am an avid ponderer on the scrumptiousness of ice cream and believe everyone should join me in this illustrious work.

Presently, I am attempting to make sense of the bits and pieces of various novels I have brought into existence and it’s fun HAHAHAHAHA OH GOD WHAT HAVE I DONE PLEASE SEND HELP.
